I was able to use the apple hardware test on the install disk 1 today and supposedly everything "passed, including the ram, memory, storage and logic board. Is the hardware test fairly reliable? Tomorrow I intend to try installing the OS again and if still getting kernel panics or frequent freezing guess I'll have to bite the bullet and initialize. Hate to do it as it is such a bear to reload everything as I did not clone the hard drive...just backed-up what was most important.
